I can guarantee you that this isn't the new HP logo. It's work the client rejected but they published it as a dirty protest.

Found a tech crunch article calling this the "rebrand that never was." http://techcrunch.com/2011/12/14…

From Brand New:
I received the following statement from an HP spokesperson in regards to the potential new logo we covered on Wednesday:
"In 2008, HP asked marketing agency Moving Brands to propose new ideas for various elements of HP’s brand identity, including fonts, graphics, and logos.
HP is one of the world’s most valuable brands and has no plans to adopt the new logo proposed by Moving Brands. HP did implement some of the other design elements shown in the case study."
So there you have it folks: no new HP logo.

Far from liking the proposed logo, it's the written rationale that's even worse:
'The defining signature of the system is the 13° angle. 13° represents HP’s spirit as a company, driven forward by ingenuity and optimism about the future and a belief in human progress. It also refers to the world of computing by recalling the forward slash used in programming.'
This is the most staggeringly trite marketing arse gravy I've ever read.
'13° represents HP’s spirit as a company'
Is this a fucking joke? A brand proposition defined by a line angle?
'It also refers to the world of computing by recalling the forward slash used in programming.'
Yeah, that's REALLY going to connect on an emotional level with your average Best Buy shopper who hasn't got the lightest clue how to use a computer, and is resorting to getting a piece of HP crap to get on the intertubes and surf some email with their shiny new AOL account.
Christ.
- love me some gravyprophetone
- in the world of programming, originally, it was a backslash not a forward slash C:\BaskerviIle

I'm not a huge fan of Moving Brands anyway, so a rebrand that never was doesn't register high on my "give a shit list".
